Last year, I built a double from a kit sold by Nomad Kayaks, and it used the H channel method of joining the top to the bottom. You fit the deck to the hull with the H channel between and then apply fiberglass tape along the inside seam to seal it and keep it in place. West Marine sells other material like H-channel, but I haven't found the H-channel in their catalog. They might have it anyway. If not, you could send email to Nomad Kayaks and ask them where they get it.
